[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolan007:
Is there rom better than miui_au. Have a htc desire I thought that the was a smooth system. I have seen great improvement in the performance. The screen customization and options endless.it looks stunning and feels correct. What other roms match this. It seems to be a good mix of the best features of android and the OS.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You mean Android and the rom right? Anyway, there isn't really any other great customisation roms out there like MIUI-Au, well there is but it is a bit more difficult sort of. CyanogenMod and Oxygen seem to be the most favourite that I have seen around the forum but other roms are great. The only way your going to be able to find out is by trying them out for yourself. If you know what kind of a rom you would like eg, sense, non sense, froyo, gingerbread, sense hd, etc, then just pick one. Some are better than others but you really need to try them out, all of them if need be.
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
These themes now use support the theme chooser wallpapers app (link below). All of the full themes (not basic series) come packaged with 9 color-matched wallpapers that you can use. To access them, install the theme chooser wallpapers app and the app will automatically show the apps matching your theme. This is based entirely on CyanogenMod's wallpaper selector and I take no credit for any of the code supplied the the wallpapers app. All credit goes to them for making all of this possible.

Attn: Theme developers. Anyone is more than welcome to use this app for their own themes. Just contact me and I would be more than happy to give any info necessary for using it and my xml codes that I use.[/SIZE]

These are my themes to use with the CyanogenMod 7 theme chooser.

To use, just install from the market (see links below) and select the theme from the theme chooser app.

Questions, comments, or recommendations? Let me know in the comments and I'll see what I can do.

I'm always looking for ideas on how to make it better​

BLUE BIONIC

GALAXY GREEN

Perfect I've been looking for a theme like this for a while when I get home I'll install it
[Android Themes] SkyStyle:
Hii..

Is there any chance that you can share the method of how you made these? I think it is only available in CM7, isn't it? It looks really nice, but I want to make my own colour and I'm on CM6.

Thanks!
[Android Themes] Seano.:
when will minimal magic be out?
[Android Themes] NickTheCreator:
Much appreciated.....look very good
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:

OMG.... Minimal magic is almost making my mouth water.... Downloading now! :D :D

Amazing work!
[Android Themes] Xephik:
Alright, I feel like an ass for saying this but since it's going to happen anyways (We all know it): can you provide a zip for those wallpapers?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
I'd be happy to. It will be attached to the second post in a few minutes
[Android Themes] nhnt11:
Alright, I wish I had an HDPI device only to enjoy some of these themes.

:( :(
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Just caught a bug with the mdpi wallpapers. Uploading an update to the market (sorry if you jumped on it right away).
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
LOL. It looks like the tapatalk icon didn't theme, correct? I may have missed something becauuse that should have been themed. It was the very last thing that I added, so I probably was just going too fast.

BTW I'll get you that info on the styles redirection tomorrow. I'm going to bed now (It's 2:40 here in Columbus, Ohio USA)
[Android Themes] nhnt11:
Don't worry about it, I figured it out. I was using local attributes, and when I added the "android:" flag to make them global it started working like magic :D

Edit: No pun intended, lol :P

Edit2: Yeah the XDA app isn't themed.

Can you pm me how to change the text of the notification pulldown stuff? =D
[Android Themes] Nerdess:
Great job !

Can I use these themes if i'm on CM7 nightly ??

Using minimal magic on nightly, no problem so far.

Thank you so much Sir!:D

Very cool. I've been lurking, and I use Minimal Magic, but I wanted to thank you for your awesome work, and the support you have going. I can't see myself ever wanting anything other than Minimal Magic. It's perfect!

I was anticipating green, pink, or purple, but not all three! Well played sir.

[Android Themes] flamepanther:
Keyboards are done now! I use the same formulas to get all of the shades from the base color automatically, so it was no effort after figuring out what worked with the existing themes. I'll post them tomorrow, along with updates to the others (improved visibility).
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Awesome. After you get those up, I'll finally get around to putting them on the second post (I was a little occupied making the themes before) .
[Android Themes] Nerdess:
Great Job !! Using the magic since the beginning. But the Purple Punch is on the line !

Btw, since the update of yesterday, the wifi notification do not light off when it's turning off. It just showed the new icon when turning the wifi on.
[Android Themes] Whitefokes:
Using Red Remix for the last couple of weeks and it's hands down the best theme I've seen available. Sooooooooooooooooo, I was wondering if you had any idea where I might find different skins for WinAmp. All my icons and widgets match so nicely and then BAM: there's my charcoal assed WinAmp widget.

Just thought I'd bring it up here before taking it to the larger community since you know what will work with your themes and what won't. Thanks again for the freshest themes yet.
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Lol. I don't use winamp myself, but I'll see what I can do about getting it themed :)
[Android Themes] Whitefokes:
Thanks. It did occur to me that switching to Minimal Magic makes it fit a lot better but why sacrifice all the other icons and their glorious crimson hew for one 90's era music player?
[Android Themes] flamepanther:
As promised, here are the Ultra Keyboard themes to go along with UpwardSpiral's excellent Theme Chooser themes!

This time I'm providing two packages. One has separate XML files for each theme so you can install only what you want. The other has all of the themes in one XML file, so you can install them all at once! The all-in-one also takes less room on your phone than all of the separate files, so I may only go that route in the future if no one objects.
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Just bought the green theme

Now I have all of your themes except for the pink and the purple on....

Great work buddy!

[Android Themes] jfitzy88:
Just put you minimal magic on and I do not have the same battery status that you have in your screen shots on the OP. I really like the % you have on your screen shot but I only have the same battery image shown on the other themes (battery image only not %). Is there an error on my part? Have you taken it off? I have rebooted, but i have not uninstalled/reinstalled. Any chance I can get the exact battery image (w/ %) you have in your OP for minimal magic?

Thanks for the theme.
[Android Themes] nhnt11:
enable battery % in CyanogenMod settings -> interface -> status bar tweaks
[Android Themes] jfitzy88:
I don't have "status bar tweaks" as an option under interface on my nightly...

Sucks.

Is it a 2.3.3 change? I'm still on 2.3.2.
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Bummer. Are you on an official build of CM7 or a port? I think the feature was added before 2.3.3, but it was close to the same time.
[Android Themes] jfitzy88:
Port... I like the % but it is not worth the hassle of me setting everything up again just to put a new nightly on for %. Plus, I really like this build that I'm on so I guess you win some and you lose some.

Thanks again for the theme.
[Android Themes] brock1909:
if we wanted to add icons to this theme.....how difficult would that be?
[Android Themes] flamepanther:
UpwardSpiral, I just noticed a small cosmetic issue you may want to fix. The last row of text in the 4x2 Music widget is getting the very bottom edge cut off. This doesn't happen in the default CM7 themes. Not a huge issue, but I figured you might not have noticed. :)
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
I'm not opposed to people adding icons to the theme and it wouldn't be terribly hard to get me the necessary information. I would want to set some ground rules before doing thus though so evrrone is on the same page. Hang tight for now.

I just used the widget and I see what you mean. The problem is related to the glow outline. It takes open space that used to be used by the widget background, so everything shrinks just a bit. I bet I can tweak this to make it work.
[Android Themes] RockRatt:
Hey I am loving your themes and using the red remix on one of my cappys and the blue on another. I have a question for you since you know what your doing with themes and all. I know they are completely different beast but do you know if custom Dialers from froyo can be added into CM7 like we did for froyo roms? Basically I REALLY liked the xtreme Dialer2 that is listed in the captivate themes section. I used it on several different roms but haven't even tried to see if it would work on CM7. To me it was the cleanest and different looking dialer I had seen and used. Thanks ahead of time and hope I am not just taking up space on your post. Thanks again.

[Android Themes] Greenfieldan:
Hey Spiral, are you going to be adding themes to icons over time? Or...? lol
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
OOOOH. Those are really secksy. I was pretty sure I wanted to make a transparent background and leave it at that, but now I've got some thinking to do. I

AM

open to people's opinion on this, so everyone who has an opinion feel free to chime in.

These look really good. Unfortunately, I've already decided to keep these in the stock/transparent style. I'd recommend making a metamorph for these, because there probably are people who would want them.

and what's that supposed to mean? :D:D:D
[Android Themes] RockRatt:
I know these are themed by another theme developer but this is what I was talking about. Like you said they are Sexy... So what do others think? This would be an AWESOME addition to your themes fo sho...

[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Great work here man !!!

Question/ request... I have purchased the blue green red and the orange themes off the market... But it seems the XDA premium isn't themed any where I look... Is it possible to theme that apk up, PLEASE SIR !!!!! Thank you for your time, lol !!!!
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
That seems reasonable. I should probably buy the premium version myself anyway... [looks down at shoes feeling a little guilty]
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Are they nikes ?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
New Balance. They fit better :D
[Android Themes] dani4365:
Only problem...

The only problem I am having is when I apply the theme and then reboot the phone for it to apply fully, my widgets have a problem loading up. They either don't, or if it sits there long enough (like last night, overnight) then they load up. Is there any way to fix this? Other than that the theme works perfectly. I am trying to use the Punk Pink theme.
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Hi,

What launcher are you using? Also does force closing the launcher help?

Dude! That purple kicks ass, and I bet Mrs. User will like that pink. That is once I update her to cm7. :D

[Android Themes] dani4365:
I am using LauncherPro. The widgets are Beautiful Widgets, Android Picture Frame Widget, and a contact widget I have downloaded. Those are the only ones effected.

I tried force closing the launcher and it seems to have worked!!! I was having problems with the Pink and Purple ones and have switched back between them twice now and force closing seems to have worked perfectly!

THANK YOU!!! :D

[Android Themes] RussianRob:
this theme is amazing but i wanna know what dock you guys are using?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
I use launcherpro. Which picture has the dock you are curious about?
[Android Themes] ULoveAriana:
I run minimal magic mostly so for me & the way I like my screens depends on the wallpaper & look I'm going for...sometimes I use no dock & just text icons & if I'm not doing that then I use any of my custom docks I have that match

My Hero is eating grape poptarts
[Android Themes] flamepanther:
With the Blue Bionic theme, I've been using these two docks in LauncherPro, depending on what my wallpaper happens to be:

http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/docks/light-cards-blue-transparent-1034

http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/docks/neon-glow-transparent-blue-422

There are alternate colors for both docks that should go with most of Spiral's themes.
[Android Themes] Lord Alekosh:
Quick question.

How would I go about changing the regular gray icons of launcher pro plus to match each of the themes? Thanks in advance.
[Android Themes] ULoveAriana:
You have to have your own custom icons that would match in a folder on your sd card then long press on the icon & select custom icon then it will take you to the gallery which will let you choose which icon you want....i hope that helps or I hope thats even what you were asking :)

My Hero is eating grape poptarts
[Android Themes] Flozzo:
Edited the H7C Fancy Widget skin to make a skin that fits well with the Red Remix theme. If anyone wants it, just download the zip and extract the folder in the zip to /sdcard/Android/data/fancywidget/clockskins.

All credits to the maker of H7C skin, I just photoshopped it all a little ;)
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Or, pick change shortcut and just reset the same app there, and the new default icon will be the themed one (if it is themed).

I think you have an EVO from your signature, which is hdpi. What I need is someone with a hero or something else that has 320x480 screen resolution.

[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Oh insomnia, what adventures in Android will you bring tonight....

UpwardSpiral, I remember you posting that lockscreen icons were ready to go when Theme Chooser would support them. I extracted all on Orange Octane, and you really meant they were ready to go. I found them. :)

While I was in there, I became more fully aware of just how much work you put into each of these themes, and I am amazed and impressed. Glad to have the donate version. You deserve it. Thank you.

So, having found the icons I was looking for, I set out to make my first morph. After a bit of bumbling, success!

If you would be willing to theme a few more icons, and get those icons to me, I will try to use what I learned tonight to create a morph for the lockscreen of each of your themes. Let me know if you are interested. :)
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Thanks for saying :)

Making morphs for the lockscreen sounds like a great idea. I know the icons that are missing, so I'll theme them and get that to you in the next couple days. While we're at it, let's theme the volume that way too so it always shows up right (if you're comfortable with that).

I love it when a plan comes together.

Will these themes work on any android phone assuming you have CM7? Sorry for the n00b question. I have a Sony Xperia X10a Mini
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
No worries. Is your phone rooted and do you have CyanogenMod installed? If you're unsure about either of these, then you probably do not have CyanogenMod. If the answer is yes, then yes they will work through the theme chooser app.
[Android Themes] ttaidapos:
Yes. Rooted with the CM7 v5 running. Thanks!
[Android Themes] fowenati:
I like minimal magic, but can you make one that themes MIUI Camera icon(I use it instead of reg camera app), or make one that themes none of the Icons but everything else. Also I kinda don't like how the selection boxes are kinda squarish looking highlighted when selected, if you get what I mean. But I can live with that. The theme looks great

EDIT: Oh, and the pulldown bar powercontrol thing has the icons default black so they are impossible to see, It'd be great if they were turned like gray or something when deactivated. THanks

Morph volume theming done on all 7 themes, and I have the rest of the prep work done too. Ready to drop in icons, zip'em, and test'em. I may look into a few other tweaks while you finish making icons.

Is the XtremeDialer gonna be implemented into the theme then? If so Thanks and I am glad I asked the right person for the job. Will it be automatically updated via the market or is this something we will need to add?

Looks great. Can't wait till you and UpwardSpiral get the morphs out!

Here are the lockscreen/volume morphs for hdpi devices. I'll pack up mdpi after some sleep. Upward's icons look great.

EDIT: Links moved to later post.

Instructions for those new to Metamorph:

1. Install Metamorph from the market, if you haven't already.

2. Download the morph zip and move it into /sdcard/AndroidThemes

3. Open Metamorph and hit Start Checks (Allow Superuser, of course)

4. Select Unzip/Extract new theme, then select the .zip

5. It extracts and a pop-up pops up. :) Hit close.

6. Hit Apply all!, then Continue? and when it asks if you want to reboot, say yes.

Enjoy.

Are these add on-s going to be added to the market apks ?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
The reason they exist is because theme chooser apps aren't able to theme the lockscreen and primary volume control. These metamorphs will be the only way to theme them indefinitely.
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Right now, the Theme Chooser does not support changing the lockscreen icons or volume, if it did, UpwardSpiral would already have them in the apk. Thus the need for these morphs.

EDIT: didn't see that Upward already responded. :)
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Okay just installed the meta mod. Its just for the lockscreen right?

Great job buddy. Rock this out. You wouldn't happen to have a meta mod for the phone dialer?
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Thanks.

Lockscreen and the indicator in the volume popup. As for the phone dialer, no, I'm waiting for the next market update too. :)
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Are you still having problems? If you're able to send me your logcat file, that would help a lot in getting to the bottom of the problem.
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
I just found a minor issue with the morphs. If my Droid keyboard is open while at the lockscreen, the old icons show up. A minor update will be coming soon.
